""It recently gained global attention in the ongoing case surrounding genocide accusations against Israel - which it has denied - in the Gaza war.""

""Today, on 21 November 2024, Pre-Trial Chamber I of the International Criminal Court (‘Court’), in its composition for the Situation in the State of Palestine, unanimously issued two decisions rejecting challenges by the State of Israel (‘Israel’) brought under articles 18 and 19 of the Rome Statute (the ‘Statute’). It also issued warrants of arrest for Mr Benjamin Netanyahu and Mr Yoav Gallant.""

This is convenient, because from day one, I said the Nissan / Ghosen trial will end up there.

If anyone seeks REAL Justice in that case.

Bibi is not a convicted war criminal (yet), he is an accused war criminal

For Palestinians and most of the international community, the settlements are considered illegal. Israel disputes this, citing the Jewish people's historical, biblical and political links to the area as well as security considerations.

And illegal based on international law.

Exactly.

Great news. Hopefully other countries will be able to see the fairness and opportunities in the Japanese legal system. That is why they chose a Japanese Judge.

The ICJ with its procrastination and inability to rule on genocide" despite the mountain of evidence has not saved the life of a single Gazan. How do these judges justify their fat salaries?

-2 ( +2 / -4 )

Both the ICC and ICJ are headed by Japanese presidents. This may be partly due to the extremely low crime rate in Japan. I hope they will get rid of the bad guys.
